Wikipedia Review is not monolithic, of course, any more than Wikipedia is -- you're making the same mistakes that people made about Wikipedia for years. Some people on WR are completely insane; others are just deeply misguided and paranoid; a few are rather sensible. There is no cabal.
If they are sensible, then why are they on Wikipedia Review?
If I wanted to read discussion and analysis of these allegations about SlimVirgin where else would I go? There's apparently nothing on Wikipedia about it.
The person who Sarah (*) is claimed to be is actually notable (has been written about in a number of books), so if we're sure the allegations are all nonsense then maybe Wikipedia should have an article on that other person (**).
(*) That's what she called herself, so I'll go by that. I feel too dumb calling a person "SlimVirgin".
(**) I guess that name has already been said on this mailing list, but I'm going to be extra nice anyway and not mention it.
